Interresting. I actually had started laszlo devellopment with such a setup (letting the OS watch for file changes and run lzc, then viewing the resulting swf in apache). I slowly gave it up because compile on tomcat was slightly faster (some caching feature I think) and a vague feeling that I wasn't doing thing the Proper Way (tm). Also, the compiler warnings/errors are not the same on both compilers (you thought it was just a different interface to the same code, did'nt you ? :p), but there is no clear winner (sometimes lzc is more usefull, sometimes tomcat). If all else fails, I might go back to that setup. And avoid dev-to-solo surprises ;) -- Vincent de Phily
